How Can I Calculate Calories From Fat?

I know that only a certain amount of your calories should come from fat, but
how do you calculate that percentage?– Brian

To calculate this, divide a food or drink's calories from fat
by total calories (this information is on the product's food
label) and then multiply by 100. For example, if a 300-calorie food has 60 calories
from fat, divide 60 by 300 and then multiply by 100. That food has 20% of its calories
from fat (60÷300=0.2 / 0.2x100=20).

Most kids and teens should get 25% to 35% of total calories each day from fat.

Toddlers ages 1 to 3 should get 30% to 40% of total calories from fat.

Healthy adults should get 20% to 35% of calories from mostly monounsaturated or
polyunsaturated fats (from nuts and seeds and plant oils such as olive oil or canola
oil, etc.).

Saturated fat and trans fat (for instance, from fatty meats or full-fat dairy products)
can raise cholesterol and increase the
risk of heart disease. Saturated fats should make up less than 10% of a person's daily
total calories. Trans fats should be kept as low as possible.
